Harbor freight wheels

[rayvel67]

Are the harbor freight rims really bad ?

Yes= ut: No=:thumbsup:

they are ok for making something a rolling frame but the blow out really quick which could make you wreck, and the bearings in them are horrible if you replace the tire. They are ok on something like a wagon are something. And for 5 dollars or what ever they are worth having them around. SO YES AND NO it depends if your going to run them with an engine. I have found about 10 in the garbage at tractor supply and harbor fright together, i don't know why they were being thrown away but they were in the dumpster so i got them.

The ones I had were bad. The flange was just crimped to the hub and broke apart at first use.

They are usually rated as "Low speed tires" :scared:

If you know what you need for your bike, post a wanted ad in the classifieds. There may be members here that have the quality part your looking for that is made to be used on a minibike.

Don't even THINK about using them on a mini. they are CRAP and designed for a small utility cart or wheelbarrow.ut:ut:ut:

They have others that cost about 15.00. I have never looked at em. Are they any better?

They have a few different styles. I have some with a turf saver type tread and built pretty beefy but haven't used them on anything. Should be fine for the front of something.

On the smaller kid bikes I have I run the cheaper looking HF ones on the front.

Not worth messing with for the rear.

Depends on the usage and which ones you are talking about.
